Hello From Colorado!

[COLODISCR]

Hey all!

I've been browsing on herer for awhile just reading and figured now that spring is around the corner I'd finally register here to help with my quest to get better and lower my scores.

I just got back from the park and can throw 175'-225' stand still using a Dart, Mako3, Shark or Leopard. If I try to x-step and attempt a run (more like walk) up the distance is the same or shorter as I tend to throw high then. After being out for about 2 hours I can hit 200' consistently and get my DX Leopard to fly exactly like the chart with a slight turn then fade at the end about 2 out of every 5 throws. I started getting too tired to keep throwing and now my upper right leg is a little sore. Is that normal putting all my weight forward on to that leg for RHBH or does that mean I'm doing something wrong?

I am around the Denver area, northeast side of the metro area, and if anyone is around willing to help correct my flaws I'm usually off Sunday through Tuesday...

Welcome from the sweaty Sac from the California valley. I'll tell you what everyone had told me. Get someone to video tour throw and post it to the forum. Any number of members would be willing to help.

Tags is a very inexpensive way to play with guys who know how to play. Learning from those in the know is a fantastic tool to have available.

Welcome to disc golf!

Wow! A Rocky Mountain "Hi!"

Welcome to the insanity. And odds are the soreness is just doing so much of an unfamiliar use of muscle groups. Note: I'm not a doctor, but you can usually ice sore muscles. But if the problem persists, there's a good chance your form is off. This should be fluid fun, not 'strong-arm' stuff. Definitely find your local club and join in with some of their activities!

-as the unibomber said id hop on a league round in the area (mhdgc-and many others) I live just north in WY and have thrown in mhdgc and noco leagues. Lots of fun, and talented players abound.

Welcome to the site, lots of good peeps around here to answer your Disc Golf inquiries. Definitely hook up with the local club for more DG knowledge and adventure. I'm hoping to be in Denver next month to visit friend, plan on playing a few courses while I'm there.

OP: reading HyzerUniBomber's posts and, even better, meeting up with him, will help your game a great deal. HUB is a font of disc golf knowledge.

Also, if you're looking to travel a little outside of Denver, the group Throw Colorado runs multi-club tag matches just about every day of the week. We'd love to see you down here in the Springs area!
